Chapter 8 - Devil Fruit, Chatting For The First Time!
[Edited]
At this moment, Lionel was looking at the fruit like an apple in front of him. It has swirls on its surface and it was completely blue and had a lightning branch as head. Without a doubt, it was the Lugia of lightning or Goro Goro no mi!
When he retrieved it from inventory for the first time, he felt it beat like a heart.
It was as if it was a living being terrified of something.
And this living being is afraid of its natural enemy.
Then the next moment, the system's notice resolved Lionel's confusion.
[Ding!]
[The host is interacting with the destiny of Spirit; Lightning Demon Soul]
He was so astonished at this moment. He felt as if he had discovered a great mystery, A mystery which puzzled many people in his past life and which was the source of Devil Fruits!
He then shook his head and asked Arya.
"Aria, Can show me the Lightning Demon Soul's Destiny List?"

[The host can steal one destiny from the list]
"Wow!!"
At this moment, Lionel was completely speechless from the abilities of the Lightning Demon Soul.
"It's good that this horrific thing is sealed in this little fruit, otherwise this world would have ended a long time ago…" He sighed before collecting his thoughts.
"What the hell is he? His age is more than a billion years old! With all these amazing abilities, it's good that he has a weak point or else, this world would be chaotic." He added while scratching his chin.
[You have to plunder the lightning spirit ability, you need it more than ever.]
"Yes, Aria, that's what I am thinking too. Unfortunately, I can't take them all..." Lionel sighed in disappointment. He was disappointed that he couldn't take all the abilities away, but this momentary sadness didn't last long after he thought about mastering the peak. What does this mean? This means that he will get 100 attribute units at once! Can you imagine this!?
Not to mention the lightning spirit will give benefits! Lionel's soul would become completely balanced with his body and even if he didn't obtain a lightning body, his spiritual attacks would have the property of lightning from now on.
(A/N: He only needs a <Zanpakutô> with the lightning element and he will become a Shinigami in the next moment?)
But not to worry, he can still take a lightning body from Enel later. At that time, His system would be upgraded and may be able to steal more than one ability. Even if Enel's mastery is low, it doesn't matter as he can raise their mastery with peak lightning spirit and much Faster!
This was the third benefit of lightning spirit and there was still a lot hidden, which needed to be dug up later.
"Okay, I have one last question, Arya." Lionel said with a serious expression.
"Why is there such a serious warning about the bloodlines?" He asked.
Lionel was suspicious of this matter and couldn't help but ask Arya.
[In your case, if you demand a Lightning Demon Soul Bloodline, it will completely transform into a Lightning Demon Soul but without a physical body. Your normal human bloodline is too weak and will be devoured in a second by the Lightning Demon Soul Bloodline. But if you obtain a strong human bloodline, It can face the Demon Lightning Soul Bloodline. You can try it at that time]
This time Lionel didn't say anything else and immediately touched the steal button.
[Stealing the destiny of skill, Lightning Spirit: Mastery; Peak from the list of Soul Destiny, Lightning Demon Soul]
[0%...15%...40%...55%...85%...100%]
[The destiny of Lightning Spirit: Mastery; Peak has been successfully stolen]
In an instant, Lionel felt as if someone had hit his head with a hammer and he couldn't feel anything anymore.
In a completely black space, there stood Lionel, or rather, Lionel's soul. He was staring into the black space with empty eyes as if he were just a wandering ghost.
But then, lightning sparks started to fill the black void as if lightning storms suddenly appeared out of thin air. The black void became filled with vitality and darkness did not exist anymore.
This didn't make Lionel's soul, with a blank look, wake up but rather, he started trembling with fear, as if he had been threatened by its existence. This was a feeling from the bottom of the little soul's being, and this was what happened in the next moment.
The lightning sparks converged together to form a demonic beast the length of a skyscraper, it was like a huge dinosaur but more like a lightning dragon!
It was a Lightning Demon Soul!
"Hehehehe! This noble hasn't had a perfect meal in millions of years! Weak soul, why don't you obediently enter my mouth." The demon opened its huge mouth and pointed a finger (which resembled a T-rex finger) towards its mouth.
Lionel's soul was still trembling at this moment.
When the Giant Demon Soul's patience ran out, it pounced on Lionel's spirit.
When Lionel's soul felt that there was no point in resisting and his fate was sealed, He gave up. But suddenly, without warning a light-filled with majesty and power appeared!
In the next second, a river of light-filled with murderous intent attacked the Lightning Demon's Soul and made the latter retreat in shock.
A figure with six wings stood in the void above Lionel's soul. The character's face was covered in yellow mist as if it was impossible to see the shape of the face, but the beautiful curves assured those present that this six-winged angel was a female! Not only that, A sexy female!
Lionel's previously empty eyes became filled with a vivid and clear radiance at this moment! It was as if his spiritual support had finally arrived and he had completely stopped trembling.
"Would you accept the integration obediently or should I force you to do so?" An ethereal voice sounded from the angel, making the Lightning Demon's soul tremble with fear.
But even so, the Lightning Demon Soul that was still full of arrogance, in his eyes, no one but the dark demon could defeat him! Even his brothers' Elemental Demon Spirits do not pose any threat to him! In his long life, he only feared the Dark Demon Soul and no one else.
That's why he took an offensive posture, intending to devour both! But these illusions of his were impossible to come true...
Chains of bright light attacked him and stopped him in his way. The chains of light wrapped around him like snakes and when it touched him, it made him groan in pain. He felt that the seawater was kinder to him compared to these chains! It was the worst pain he had felt in his entire long life.
"Maybe it's because you lived in a closed world made up of demons only that you did not know that demons have natural enemies. Even if you were only a demon soul, you would still be considered a demon and a high-ranking angel like me is just such a terrifying enemy to you." The angel's voice was filled with bone piercing coldness.
"Forget it, it's useless to talk to a dead person." She then added with a helpless sigh.
After shaking her head, she sent an arrow of Light directly into the forehead of the giant beast. This Light arrow was unusual, its light energy within it seemed extremely dense and it also contained an extremely heavy mental strength!
After the arrow pierced him, the lightning demon soul's eyes turned dull. He stopped resistaning completely and then in the next instant, he completely transformed into a torrent of blue light and flew directly to Lionel's soul and then merged with him.
———
After feeling that it is an eternity, Lionel opened his eyes, and the first thing that caught his attention was the immense power he was feeling at this moment. His soul was blinking, he felt that he had to get out at once and go berserk around in the forest just like Ozaru! But he suppressed his desire by force. Then with his advanced medical knowledge, he restrained himself again so as not to cause trouble with his uncontrollable strength.
"Thank you, Arya, for saving my life! This good will surely be returned to you one day." Lionel felt a feeling of warmth and emotion like never before as he thanked Arya.
At first, Arya had intended to lie about the previous event and deny that she had interfered, but after feeling the emotion and sincere gratitude from Lionel's soul, she didn't know what to say and felt lost, but eventually, she sighed and said,
"Well, It was my advice to plunder that Demon spirit, so I had to take full responsibility. I already knew the consequences and if I wasn't sure how to control the situation, I wouldn't let you plunder that Demon spirit as it would have devoured you in one bite without my help."
"But…"
He wasn't able to finish his words when he got surprised by the successive notifications. This time, it was from a yellow interface and not the blue interface that he is used to!
[Ding!]
["fairy of frozen beauty" sent a message!]
["equestrian queen, titania" sent a message!]
["pirate empress" sent a message!]
["sad fate girl" sent a message!]
Lionel was overjoyed and hurriedly entered the subsystem.
The interface of the yellow dimensional chat group opened before his eyes and then the vast amount of notifications surprised him.
[The dimensional chat group has been activated!]
[The administrator 'the future harem king' has invited "The fairy of frozen beauty" to the dimensional chat group!]
[The administrator "the future harem king" has invited "Titania, the Queen of Equestrianism" to the dimensional chat group!]
[The administrator 'the future harem king' has invited "The sad Fate girl" to the dimensional chat group!]
[The administrator 'the future harem king' has invited '"The pirates' Empress" to the dimensional chat group!]
[Ding! The fairy of frozen beauty has joined the dimensional chat group!]
[Ding! "Titania, the Queen of Equestrianism" has joined the dimensional chat group!]
[Ding! "The sad Fate girl" has joined the dimensional chat group!]
[Ding! The pirates' Empress has joined the dimension chat group!]
"Who the hell is the future harem king!? Even if I wanted to, at least let my desires be hidden at first! Or else, everything would be lost!!" Lionel's eyeballs nearly popped out after he saw the shameful nickname given to him by the System.
He got very angry and wanted to change it right away, but he remembered that there were four unread messages earlier.
His face immediately turned pale and he even felt unwilling to continue reading the messages!
But his curiosity couldn't help but turn his eyes toward the chatting frame.
{The fairy of frozen beauty: Hello, is anyone here? Can you explain the situation to me? And who is this future harem king who added me?}
{Titania, the Queen of Equestrian: I also don't know what's going on here! And I don't know who this "the future harem king". I don't even know what nonsense I've been put into! By the way, are you a fairy or is it just your nickname?}
{The sad Fate girl: I may know what's going on! This is kind of like a Facebook or WhatsApp chat group, but what is this phantom interface that appeared in front of me!? Is this some kind of experimental technology?? And what the hell is that my nickname! But anyway, my nickname is less embarrassing than the administrator hahaha!}
{The pirates' Empress: What is this yellow interface before me!? Is it some kind of fruit ability? If someone is messing with me, I swear I'll turn him into a stone no matter his background! I don't care, anyway I can do anything, because I'm beautiful ?, by the way, who is this future harem king?}
At this moment he felt that it would be good if he could withdraw from the chat, but unfortunately, this feature does not exist for him.
